- 10-20-2009: Yamaha: New linear axis
Yamaha extended the range of linear axis. The type F8 marks the new entry into the F-Series which combines high rigidity with outstanding speeds and high payloads.
Clean room version (C8)is available and also types for higher speeds and longer strokes (F8L, C8L).
- 08-14-2009: Yamaha Transervo
With the Transervo series Yamaha releases a new kind of axis. Instead of a complex controller, it is equipped only with a driver unit which helps to reduce the cost by app. 20%.
Transervo uses stepping motor with resolver. By this, the advantages of stepping motor (cheap, vibration-free stop) and servo motor (precise, high speed, high payload) are combined into one axis, which makes Transervo interesting for many different applications. Handling is easy and design is compact, so automation can become even more efficient from now!

- 02-06-2009: Modernized tiny SCARA robots
Yamaha modernized the tiny SCARA robots from 120mm to 180mm range. The actuation is now beltless. By this, Yamaha strengthened its role as pioneer in the field of small SCARA robots. Beltless actuation means higher speed and higher precision. A the same time, reliability increased and the maintenance work could reduced. The package is completed by the new powerful controller RCX240 which enables reduced cycle times and a number of new functions. For instance, integrated vision and tracking systems are possible
With this new concept, compact systems for compact prices can be realized!
- 04-01-2008: Vision system for Yamaha robots
Yamaha industrial robots can now be equipped with vision system. Conveyor tracking is also possible. The outstanding feature
of this system is the fact that it is directly integrated into the controller which means high-speed communication, easiness of use, high reliability and cost efficiency.
- 10-04-2007: Yamaha expands new Scara XG-Series
The XG series of the Yamaha-SCARA-Robots has been expanded from 70 to 100 cm. The new types are available from now. A higher precision combined with increased speed are the outstanding features of these Scara robots.
- 09-10-2007: Yamaha releases new NXYx-Series
The new NXYx-Series from Yamaha is available from now. It uses the new technology with the motor integrated into the slider. This makes possible higher speeds and more accuracy at long stroke. Multi-slider axis is also possible.
